In the 1970s, there was interest in expanding the then 16-team NHL by two more teams. NBA’s Baltimore Bullets owner Abe Pollin was interested in an NHL franchise for the Washington area. There was plenty of competition for Pollin as he worked to secure a D.C.-area hockey team, but ultimately Washington and Kansas City were […]
Saturday is St. Patrick’s Day, and as has become a bit of a tradition on this site, we set our sights on showcasing the best jerseys in the league based on colour.

Tomorrow is St. Patrick’s Day, which is most often associated with the colour green. But don’t forget what all those drunk leprechauns are (theoretically) searching for as they stumble the streets of their respective cities (other than their lucky charms) – that elusive pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
